Getting back to GM 2019, I looked around for other big contracts we could trade Myers for and I found zero pitchers (save for David Price, which no) and the one that makes the most sense is Kyle Seager. They have no outfielders after Hanigan and have played around with Cano at third so it works for them, and obviously we would get a third baseman. And because Seager's older and had a worse season, maybe we could get Seattle to throw something in.

I mentioned this a month ago... If Seattle goes rebuild or Tank Mode I'd like to expand the deal Paxton + Seager for Myers + Naylor + Q + A (get it Q & A--Logan Allen)... or something along those lines... Seager lefty, good D, bounce back candidate.. we are taking on more $$ for 2019, but better off on D, and potentially = or > on O at least more balanced... and Paxton is a very solid #2 type

Paxton is likely going to get $10mil + in Arb.. so if Seattle is retooling or rebuilding (maybe not full Tank Mode) this deal might make sense for them... they could also used the $$ saved in the deal to go sign KK (JPN FA) or Ryu, or Corbin or even 2 of them.. sort of moving their resources around while still remaining competitive or improving...

Padres get a solid SP who is solid #2, (but would be our TOR)... in 2019... at a fraction of the cost of DeGroom or Noah..

Was Seager playing injured this season or did he just peak at 28 and is on his decline now?

They have Cano..as long as they are paying him they arent really in tank mode..but they could be doing a retool.. The current plan is working to a certain point but not getting them there...so a Myers for Seager swap maybe helps both sides and a Paxton for 2 MLB ready SP + Naylor (DH in 2020) maybe rettols them faster or gets them over the hump faster...especially if they add a 3rd arm (to replace Paxton)..
